There was no reply on my last mail about this problem. I only have a
workaround.

After updating to latest cooker (2001-07-09) my network doesn't start
anymore. I think it depends on
| if check_link_down ${DEVICE}; then
| echo " failed; no link present. Check cable?"
| exit 1
| fi
from /sbin/ifup.
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions:
|...
|check_link_down ()
|{
| if [ -x /sbin/mii-tool ]; then
| output=`/sbin/mii-tool $1 2>&1`
| if echo $output | grep -q "Operation not supported"; then
| return 1
| elif echo $output | grep -q "link ok"; then
| return 1
| else
| return 0
| fi
| fi
| return 0
|}
|...
|[root@kilroy root]# /sbin/mii-tool eth0
|eth0: no link
When i disable the check_link_down function it works.
Any hints?
